    I love the texture and finish of this product but the perfume scent is semi-overwhelming.

    I've been using this for months. It seemed to work okay when I first tried it. Now it doesn't seem to work much at all and burns when I put it on acne. The smells is quite strong and...

    DEFINITE NO... for this product. There are better, cheaper and more natural products in the market to fight acne. This product just makes everything worse.

    For me, this is my primer, because none of the legitimate primers on the market seem to make the cut. I was using Proactive's Daily Oil Control prior to using this as my "primer", while it is...

    It's strange how this is called an oil-absorbing treatment because it made my skin feel pretty greasy after applying it. But I mainly bought this product as an acne medication so I only apply it...

    I used this along with the Advantage Oil Control Cleanser. By itself, this seems to do nothing in regards to controlling oil. The texture of this cream is very strange. It's almost like Elmer's...
